Installation notes

Used together with the cardboard/felt firewall padding that is mounted between engine and dashboard. The sheetmetal clips fasten behind the sheetmetal of the bulkhead, the screws pass through it. Only fit the padding after all wiring and lines have been routed through the firewall.

Compatibility

Fits all Willys MB (1941-1945), Ford GPW (1942-1945) and Ford GPA amphibious jeeps. The GPA shared many body components with the standard MB/GPW vehicles. Suitable for both early production (1941-1943) and late production (1943-1945) variants.

Historical context

The firewall padding was originally made from black cardboard with corrugated fibreboard, fixed with this specific hardware. This insulation material reduced heat, noise and vibrations between the engine compartment and driver's cabin.
